I love the ice cream scooper because it has a suction cup on the scooper so you can actually "scoop" the ice cream. Then if you hit the release button on the scooper, then it will release the ice cream right into your bowl or cone! My son thought that was pretty cool. The pretend chocolate syrup bottle has a piece of brown string hanging down so you can pretend that you are putting chocolate sauce on your ice cream. My son loves the Pretend & Play Ice Cream Shop and we play almost daily. I have almost as much fun as Tobin does! It's a lot of fun and not only does it help Tobin with his colors, but it also teaches him hand-eye coordination and cooperation.

We don't have a television, so when I need a break, unless I want a mess, I need to provide my kids with some really great entertainment. I was previously sent the Pro Chef set by Learning Resources, and it came in quite handy right after I had my baby in June (my kids are still loving and playing with it), so when I was offered another product to review I was thrilled! While looking through their incredible site of ingenious toys, my kids outright begged me for the Pretend and Play Ice Cream Shop. This set could not be cuter!! My kids adore it! The quality is superb, and quite realistic. The set comes complete with an apron, a recipe book, and lots of toy ingredients one may need to run an ice cream shop. The apron is so stinkin' cute. The ice cream scoops pile into an icecream carton the one drawback I found was that it is a bit difficult to get the cover on and off, but not a big deal. There's a dry erase menu, and even chocolate syrup! The banana is velcroed together, and can be split to make a banana split! There are lots of pieces, so my son and daughter were able to play together. This toy is great for parallel play as well as group play.My kids loved following the recipes they were provided with. The recipes are actually picture displays so kids can easily recreate them and feel the satisfaction of their accomplishment! Following directions and copying in itself is a wonderful skill that kids learn in preschool, why not enhance their learning experience with real life toys they enjoy working with? This sets a great foundation for more difficult tasks later on like reading and writing.We love Learning Resources, they keep toys safe, fun, affordable and educational! This brand has become a favorite in our home.
